Subject: [gentoo-user] {OT} Webcam packages (motion segfaults)
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2008 05:05:00

1 I've got my Philips SPC900NC webcam taking videos with the streamer
2 command from the xawtv package, but I'd like to use a program to
3 record videos based on motion detection. zoneminder looks good but
4 seems difficult to set up and would be overkill. motion looks about
5 right, but segfaults for me like this:

7 # /etc/init.d/motion start
8 * Starting motion detection ...

30 Is there any way I can track down the problem? Is there another
31 program that can take videos based on motion detection?
